VOTE: Coppanuva



If you unvote Coppanuva, I'll tell you. :)
Why do YOU think that he deserves to be lynched ? Like Retro said things happen but your vote just came off to me as Pure bandwagoning

Bandwagon.jpg
 
If that's the possibility you're hoping for you're sorely mistaken. If a townsperson gets evicted this first day, there's certainly worse choices we could make than me.

I'm still in with the logic that a cultist is likely voting on me at some point, especially now that the count of votes on me is 6. Unfortunately, there's not many consistencies between voting patterns so far, so nothing that pairs 2 people together as constantly voting on people yet...

Well, then forget voting patterns. You're not going to suddenly produce the entire cult on Day 1. Day 1 is about individuals.

Just give us your opinions of the six of us, gut reads, whatever.

Four players isn't much of a bandwagon, though. I'd imagine cultist votes would be more of a lynchipin vote to seal the majority, like the last 20% needed to lynch, but maybe not.

Although now that Blarg has voted (is that 5?), maybe there will be more.

6 now actually. The bandwagoning is real if we compare it to anything else that has happened in this thread.

I don't like this post. You jumped in on my theory which was an easy out for you. Obviously, I think the theory is good but I don't like it coming from you. I want to hear your thoughts on other things that have happened.

But we weren't successful. Saying that he would come back with impressions soon isn't the same as actually giving us his impressions. It's not a reason to let up the pressure and move onto the next suspect.

At the time, I wouldn't say to let up pressure but I thought there was enough to be interesting. Now though, I could say we have failed. So let's see where the additional pressure takes us.

Coppa seems like a safe choice, I'm not sure I'd say for sure there's a cultist amongst the people voting for him, though statistically there probably is/are? He's one of the players who have posted the least, seems to be evading calls for him to speak his mind, and most of his posts are defensive in nature. It's not hard to see why people are bandwagoning against him.

That said, I don't want this post to be a defense for Coppa or deny that cultists may be pushing for his lynching; if he's a townie they may see it as an easy kill that even other townies may get behind, justifying their actions in later days. As townies, we should push for Coppa to defend himself if he's innocent. But the way he's acting, "day 1 lynch material", as LoC put it is a fitting description. Coppa, you better speak up, as you seem to be painting a huge target on your back, for both townies and cultists.

I'll keep my vote as of now. I'm not entirely convinced of Lone_Prodigy's innocence (although he does seem like a newbie, but please come back and speak to us! It's been so long!), and I'm also not ready to gang up on Coppanuva.

Well...you're not incorrect, but you'd be an easy target for a mafia day one lynch. You're quiet, don't defend yourself, and you're only just noticeable enough that people will remember you exist when it comes time to lynch. I'm sure we'd get enough information from the bandwagon later on, but laying low and saying you're not the worst target is asking people to keep voting for you. I don't know if it's because we're within the second half of the day phase but you have a ridiculous amount of people on you right now for when most people were bandwagoning and then backing off fast.

Just give us your opinions of the six of us, gut reads, whatever.

- Rats Off To Ya
- Never Forever
- Sorian
- Darryl
- Lord of Castamere
- Blargonaut

Sure, I'll start there, I readjusted your list in order of who I think is the most to least suspicious:

Blargonaut:
I still need to know how Blargonaut gets his info, and I don't think there's a good way to prove it. I'm suspicious of how he determined what to say in his hints, and it's not something I fully trust yet. I'm very curious how good his advice plays out. I'm also curious why he would give us advice that would lead to 2 dead by the end of night 1. He seems to have a lot of information, and it doesn't quite look good (particularly if any of the powers he suggested might exist are single-use).

Lord of Castamere:
I don't like his whole secret puzzle hint with Blargonaut, and I'm suspicious of him based on how he reacted to it. If anything I'm more suspicious of him based on his pairing with Blargonaut (whether he was able to get a meaning from a riddle based on deductive reasoning or a player-ability remains to be seen), but it's not something I'm sure can be taken as not somewhat suspicious.

Never Forever:
You're a swing vote in my opinion, could be either and it's way too hard to tell. You seem to be pushing to dictate conversation, and threw it away from the mystic ball at probably a good time, which is good. The one thing I really don't like is that on the very start you called someone out for putting someone up to vote without stating a reason then did the same thing.

Rats Off to Ya:
Likely town. Nothing Rats did really seems to stand out too much, and any posts are pretty much in line with what everyone else is doing (vote for people who are inactive/have heads down).

Sorian:
I think Sorian is likely a townie. He's playing aggressively early and drawing a lot of attention. He doesn't seem concerned about making too many enemies, and I honestly think he's just targeting people to get a read on them and how they think early.

Darryl:
That item is interesting and seems plausible. I also don't think he's lying about it, especially given that it would lead to a very early eviction against him if nobody else gets it tomorrow. Darryl isn't likely to slip up like that this early on. Town.
 
Lord of Castamere:

That's fair. I'm not gonna reveal Blargs presumed role, but I will reveal his presumed alignment.

Based on the Puzzle and the post following it, I can confirm, assuming he's not lying, that Blargonaut von Blargington is not Cultist aligned. Take that as you will.

Cough up the goods.

Coppa seems like a safe choice, I'm not sure I'd say for sure there's a cultist amongst the people voting for him, though statistically there probably is/are? He's one of the players who have posted the least, seems to be evading calls for him to speak his mind, and most of his posts are defensive in nature.

Coppa, you better speak up, as you seem to be painting a huge target on your back, for both townies and cultists.

I don't think the smart play is to ever lynch someone who is asking to be lynched. When the bandwagon starts on you, it's easy for a player to just say screw it, kill me and be done with it. I read that as a mafia play hoping someone would bring up this reasoning or a townie that has no real power role.

Blargonaut:
I still need to know how Blargonaut gets his info, and I don't think there's a good way to prove it. I'm suspicious of how he determined what to say in his hints, and it's not something I fully trust yet. I'm very curious how good his advice plays out.

He seems to have a lot of information, and it doesn't quite look good (particularly if any of the powers he suggested might exist are single-use).

This was a post I can get behind and that's why I am unvoting you. I do want to point one thing out in your Blarg section though. We want 2 dead by the end of night 1. Blarg's advice is in line with that. Most of us want to lynch day 1 and then the mafia will kill during night 1. I could actually make a case to say that Blarg is trying keep the death toll to only 1 by the end of night 1 but that's a gamble that probably won't pay off at this point.

----

My vote will now remain inactive for the first time since the game started. It's time for my lunch and I'll think how I want to proceed while I eat.
 
Damn, a lot of posts have been posted since the AM and I've read through them twice. It's good to see Timeaisis posting a lot more, can't say I fully agree with how everyone is feeling about Coppanuva just yet. I mean, he successfully managed to avoid drawing attention for a time but now he's getting called out so obviously he needs to get more active and prove himself, just like how I did after my mild shit posting session (And yet Blarg gets adored for it. AAAAA) While I was pushing up on Darryl for a while I do acknowledge his posting quality and tact as a player but still... I can't put my faith into him but I want to. Droplet seems to be playing a bit too sweetly and keeping her posts just right in order to avoid judgement but some of you seem to be questioning her and I feel the same.

If I vote someone I wanna try and have it be stacked against someone honestly, someone who we all agree has slipped up and we're confident in getting rid of them.

For the purposes of the following post, I'll use the term "Lazy tourist" to refer to tourist-aligned players who contribute very little but post enough to never be replaced. Basically what Cappa was being accused of being (if not Mafia, of course).

I don't think the smart play is to ever lynch someone who is asking to be lynched. When the bandwagon starts on you, it's easy for a player to just say screw it, kill me and be done with it. I read that as a mafia play hoping someone would bring up this reasoning or a townie that has no real power role.

Well yeah, that's my point. Lynching a "lazy" tourist is a bad play, because it's a fake "win-win" scenario.

Person A might say:

"Well, this is good for both Mafia and the Tourists, because the Mafia gets a tourist kill and the tourist get to kill someone who wasn't contributing but was posting enough to never be replaced, so it's not a big loss"

But that argument omits the fact that a kill in which it's pretty much agreed that the mafia and the town came together to kill a "lazy" player yields way less information than any other would. Later when more kills have occurred and there is more information, people will read previous results to try to track others' behaviors, and this one would have to be omitted because of it's one-sidedness.

"Controversial" kills yield way more info; those are the ones future survivors will look to when tracking their suspects' behaviors. That's why I urged Coppa to speak up; easy kills are not only boring, they tell us very little.

OK, I've been going through the thread today, and here are my current thoughts.
Note: A lot of these are just impressions. We don't have any hard evidence to support any of this. If you call this post fluff, I'm going to vote for you.

Blargonaut:
I agree with LoC that Blarg isn't Mafia. He might be a third party. We are going to have to vote him out eventually, but it doesn't need to be tonight.
Althrough Blarg, as soon as you die, I want to see full rundowns of any and all puzzles in the Dead Thread.

Lord of Castamere:
I like LoC, and he reads like town to me. I don't begrudge him not giving out solutions to Blarg's puzzle. Knowledge is power in this game, and power must sometimes be earned.

Never Forever:
I can't get a read on NF. At one point I though Mafia, but a more recent read makes me think town. Keeping a suspicious eye on you.

Rats Off:
No real opinion. He seems very rational, which is good. I would guess town, but I don't have enough to get a good vibe yet.

Sorian:
Sorian is so town it hurts. He reminds me of Squidyj from AC, (who was the post-Launchpad Launchpad,) That being said, I'm always wary of the one who talks too much and tries to lead the discussion. I don't think Sorian is Mafia, but if he were, he's playing it the way I would.

Darryl:
My natural inclination is to suspect Darryl after that AC game. That being said, pretty sure Darryl is town. A lot of the stuff he's done doesn't make sense for Mafia, like telling us about his super-secret item. But, I thought Darryl was town for most of last game, too.

Coppanuva:
Suspicious. Has been very quiet up to today. He intended to submit a vote by the end of Tuesday but never did. He DID say that he's traveling, so there could be an excuse, but it's worth noting to keep an eye on him.

Droplet:
Her posts feel a little defensive, but I feel like she's trying to facilitate the game as much as possible. I'm undecided. She could go either way.

Fireblend:
See my previous post about Fireblend. He reads as town, but confused and a little frustrated by the lack of direction. I sympathize.

Flame_AC:
I have a bad feeling about Flame. It might just be how he drove the accusation at me last night, but something about his method differs from Sorian's. It feels less investigative, and more… bloodthirsty. I'm not calling him out, but he bears watching.

Lone_Prodigy:
Something is fishy here. I don't buy his argument that bandwagons generate discussion. More likely trying to pile on to someone to get an eviction pushed through. Accuses AC of fluff, which I find funny. Overall, LP is suspicious.

Correct me if I am wrong. Capitain and Orange have not posted since the day has started? If true, I have no interest in them. If they sneak in posts right before the game ends though, I won't be happy with them going forward.

I'm not going to poke anyone else with my vote at the moment but I will say that Tucah, Rats, and Ultron are who I want to hear more from. I won't say all of their posts have been fluff because that is wrong but all 3 of them have been "safe" players. Never really going against the flow and staying mostly under the radar. The more you stir the pot, the more I'll trust you.

Neuromancer, I want more from you too. I think you are a new player who is just scared especially after having a bandwagon on you but I can't spare you a real inspection just because you are new.

This is fair. If you're talking about the LoC thing, I honestly didn't have a clue what I was doing, and I know it looked odd, but I just wanted to see how people would respond. Nobody really did, because it was stupid. I just didn't feel like approaching it softly-softly and doing the whole 'I'm new be gentle' routine, but I didn't have a lot to go on so yeah. That was kind of embarrassing.

Ever since then I've just watched the discussion play out, throwing my word in whenever it felt necessary, and just trying to move things in the best possible direction for town, and away from unnecessary tangents. I like being able to get fixes on people. You're the first person I voted for since then because you're one of the few interesting enough to warrant the extra attention.

So, if you had to pick one person, would Blargonaut be your choice for a lynch?

I think this may be the case for a lot of new players. Especially day one, where there's not much to go on, being vocal can get you into more trouble than it's worth if people read your posts the wrong way.

That being said, it's probably worth asking those who haven't posted as much to chime in on who they suspect or their thoughts on the game overall. Even if it's a single line or two explanation, just to let everyone know they are actually following the game and "active". I know that I personally don't post as much when I have nothing further to contribute, even if I'm following the game.

You chose the wrong pocket monster
 
Coppanuva completely turned me around with that post of his. There were a couple points in particular that haven't been brought up in the thread yet and I felt like I could have written them myself. That scored him a lot of points with me.

I think it's about time we circle back around on somebody we passed over a bit. Lone_Prodigy seems to have weathered the storm and then slinked back into the shadows. Let's look back.

I find Neuromancer a bit overly defensive, and his no-lynch vote came out of nowhere when others were discussing how we shouldn't do a no-lynch.

Vote: Neuromancer

This is his first post wherein he votes for Neuromancer. This is interesting for a couple of reasons. Neuromancer had already explained himself, and come around on the day one lynch. Lone_Prodigy is the first and only vote since that happened. This vote also came right after Droplet posted a vote summary showing Neuromancer in the lead. What a safe time to jump on a bandwagon, eh?

Unvote: Neuromancer

I was too hasty and agree that it's too early for a bandwagon. I would like to hear from him about his suspicions though.

Prodigy went a long time posting again. It wasn't until the wagon had turned on himself that he came back and tried to "undo" what he had done. Seems like he was trying to ignore the pressure but it became too strong.

What mounting pressure? And who's potentially bandwagoning now?

Vote: Flame_AC

The "I Know You Are, But What Am I?" defense.

I unvoted because bandwagons generate discussion, and it became clear that that bandwagon wasn't taking off.



I voted for you for starting a bandwagon because you voted for me for starting a bandwagon.

Just a weak defense all around.

I voted according to the last vote count posted, where Neuromancer had the most votes. You had just voted for someone else (without unvoting), so I missed it.

I'm keeping my vote on Flame. He didn't unvote until I did and I didn't even have the most votes when he voted for me. It seems to be his modus operandi: subtly add to a potential bandwagon without antagonizing anyone ("I just agree with the other guy who voted but nothing's going to happen anyway so don't sweat it, oh by the way this is me being active").

Bandwagons start plenty of discussion. Why are we starting one? Who started it? What does the bandwagoned have to say? Perhaps my definition is a little different: I think those who contribute to the start of one are the most suspicious. No one questions a rock already barreling downhill, but who pushed it to the edge and gave it a nudge?

Still doesn't offer anything of substance, just cast aspersions upon those who have wronged him.

After that there's one more similar post and then Prodigy just disappears. His easy bandwagon backfired and now he's trying to lay low and survive the remainder of the day. Everything he's done is indicative of a Cultist or an ineffective Tourist. I have no problem losing either on Day One.

VOTE: Lone_Prodigy

This is probably the vote I'm sticking with unless anything truly dramatic comes up.

I don't see why he would make so many claims that could be easily checked and verified against the second day. He has way too much to lose with his gambles, and I don't see why he would risk it so soon.

That said, I'm not sure I'd want you or Lord out yet either. If you are both town, it seems like losing one of you makes the other much weaker which would suck. I have my eye on you for now.

This is kind of what I want from everyone who I called out in my last post. They all have varying levels of participation and they gave some suspicions earlier but a lot of stuff actually happened today even though there haven't been many overall posts.

This is a fantastic post. It sums up how I feel about Prodigy but I do not feel like he will be my vote by the end of this. I'm waiting for more posts from those above but I think there is someone else who is an even more ineffective tourist/possible cultist.

I also welcome Vylash to post. Your role is a blank slate to us so I'd like to get to know you. Read up on the thread up until know and tell us your impressions as you go.

Basically, tell me about what you think of posts from today. Give me an impression of Coppa, tell me what you think about the band wagoning that started on him, and finally, what's your take on Blarg and LoC in terms of their interactions together. If you answer those 3 things for me then I think most of us would be satisfied for now.
 
Coppanova is looking a lot better than before. I retract my vote. I never wanted a bandwagon lynch only a good read list from the accused. BUT I don't feel that list or his defense to the vote was genuine. It felt forced. He took a defense someone else provided and structured a list that was fed. If we don't find a better candidate by tomorrow, I will return to Coppanova.

What do you want to know? If I had any solid suspicions on anyone I'd have shared them by now. The fact is I have no idea who anyone is, I don't even know what behaviors to really look for to indicate who anyone is.

As sorian just mentioned. just Jump in and let your thoughts flow. tell us what YOU think about all this. keep active and chime in once and a while.
 
UNVOTE: Coppanuva

Damn, a lot of posts have been posted since the AM and I've read through them twice. It's good to see Timeaisis posting a lot more, can't say I fully agree with how everyone is feeling about Coppanuva just yet. I mean, he successfully managed to avoid drawing attention for a time but now he's getting called out so obviously he needs to get more active and prove himself, just like how I did after my mild shit posting session (And yet Blarg gets adored for it. AAAAA) While I was pushing up on Darryl for a while I do acknowledge his posting quality and tact as a player but still... I can't put my faith into him but I want to. Droplet seems to be playing a bit too sweetly and keeping her posts just right in order to avoid judgement but some of you seem to be questioning her and I feel the same.

If I vote someone I wanna try and have it be stacked against someone honestly, someone who we all agree has slipped up and we're confident in getting rid of them.

And they said Charisma 18 was a useless build

Look at me now, CzarTim

That's fair. I'm not gonna reveal Blargs presumed role, but I will reveal his presumed alignment.

Based on the Puzzle and the post following it, I can confirm, assuming he's not lying, that Blargonaut von Blargington is not Cultist aligned. Take that as you will.

I would greatly advise against killing Blargonaut until the situation can be further illuminated.

OK, I've been going through the thread today, and here are my current thoughts.
Note: A lot of these are just impressions. We don't have any hard evidence to support any of this. If you call this post fluff, I'm going to vote for you.

Blargonaut:
I agree with LoC that Blarg isn't Mafia. He might be a third party. We are going to have to vote him out eventually, but it doesn't need to be tonight.
Althrough Blarg, as soon as you die, I want to see full rundowns of any and all puzzles in the Dead Thread.

Lord of Castamere:
I like LoC, and he reads like town to me. I don't begrudge him not giving out solutions to Blarg's puzzle. Knowledge is power in this game, and power must sometimes be earned.

Aw, yeah. See, Timeaisis? Top. Men.

Basically, tell me about what you think of posts from today. Give me an impression of Coppa, tell me what you think about the band wagoning that started on him, and finally, what's your take on Blarg and LoC in terms of their interactions together. If you answer those 3 things for me then I think most of us would be satisfied for now.

As sorian just mentioned. just Jump in and let your thoughts flow. tell us what YOU think about all this. keep active and chime in once and a while.
From what I saw Coppanuva was only being threatened with being lynched to try to get a response out of him one way or another. I thought his responses were fairly reasonable and I have nothing against him.There's any number of reasons why someone might be inactive in this game. They could be a tourist disappointed that they didn't get a more exciting role. They could be a cultist laying low. Or it could just be life outside GAF. I don't think being inactive makes anyone more or less likely to be good, bad or indifferent.

Blarg's cryptic posts are extra strange to me within the context of the game- if you were a good guy I don't see why you'd bring that much attention to yourself. If I were a cultist, people who appeared to have extra or special information would be the first I'd go after. Then LoC goes along with it which is also unusual, why make alliances this early on in the game? I don't know what to make of any of it.

I do think we need to lynch someone today for the greater good of the island but I don't have any solid leads yet. If it were up to me we'd use a random generator but I don't know how we'd agree on a methodology. Maybe that's something we can explore as a group near the end of day one.

You, sir, are a gentleman. I am always happy to blood pact with you.

Well that's the thing, the feeding part is what's wrong. We voted for Coppa and he provided a list not of his own choosing. You may notice that he called no one out. The closest he came was Blarg and me, but the very next post backed down from that too. It feels like he shaped his opinion around the list, because he doesn't want to rock the boat. Like I said, compared to what Retro gave when "proded" it didn't feel genuine in the slightest.

So let's pause our conversation there then. Coppa should be quite aware of how any why he still has suspicion on him and this is a good opportunity to get more engagement. I've been purposely feeding some players and not others on just gut feeling and I don't want to give guidelines to Coppa for another post. Would you mind making another post Coppa? About anything at all that you think would be beneficial to the tourists.

I was actually trying to do this earlier today. I got annoyed and stopped to focus on people we're actually talking about. I'll work more on it tomorrow.
